IPL 2020 Will Be Most Watched Ever, Players Should be Tested Daily for COVID: Ness Wadia

 Kings XI Punjab co-owner Ness Wadia on Friday advocated daily testing of players during the IPL and predicted that the upcoming edition in the UAE will be the most watched in the tournament's history.

Wadia's comments came after IPL chairman Brijesh Patel confirmed that the T20 league will be held from September 19 to November 8. All teams are now awaiting the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) from the BCCI, which will finalise the logistics in the IPL Governing Council meet next week.

"Strict safety protocols have to be put in place both for off-field and on-field activities to make the IPL safe and successful. They should not be compromised at all," Wadia told PTI.

"I would want as much testing as possible and preferably daily. If I was a cricketer, I would be very happy in getting myself tested everyday. There is no harm in it," he added.

Ness Wadia Hails Kings XI Punjab Captain KL Rahul

"He is a captain in the making, as he said recently 'I have watched Virat, thinking like a captain.' And when you're a wicket keeper you automatically think a lot, so it's going to be amazing. Our role is just to encourage them and give them more confidence," he added. KXIP has so far played three matches, recording two losses and a win. However, Rahul's performance in the last two games has been phenomenal. During the team's second match, the captain played an unbeaten knock of 132 runs off just 69 balls against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), guiding his side to a massive 97-run win. IPL was initially scheduled to take place in March but it was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic. The league commenced on September 19 in the UAE. Wadia said he knew all along that IPL would happen and had full faith in the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI). News Source NDTV Sports
